About the Book

There is a difference between law and justice. The essence of law is its force. Law is law because it carries the means to coerce or force obedience. The power of the state is behind it. The essence of justice is fairness. Governmental justice consists of various welfare schemes, law, legal literacy, administrative forms of arbitration such as tribunals, boards, courts, public interest litigation, new legal education, plus the constitutional idea of protection of weaker sections of the society and introduction of positive discrimination. Dr. Ambedkar was the man who tried to turn the Wheel of the Law toward social justice for all. He has strong fervour to attain social justice among the Indian Communities for this purpose he began his vocation. The present book deals with diverse burning issues which are directly related to individuals, society, state, law and constitution revolving round the concept of social justice. It focuses on poverty jurisprudence highlighting the problems of the scheduled castes, backward segments, weaker sections and minorities searching the ideal solutions of their problems, and also suggesting ways and means for tackling them successfully. This book is an ideal study guide for students and all those interested on social science and constitutional studies.
